Sliding Mount Specimen Holder
This holder is designed to test small, rigid
materials. With two adjustable slide mounts,
four 50 mm
(2.0 inch)
square samples can be
mounted to this table. To accommodate the
threaded center post, one corner of each
specimen must be trimmed.

Specimen Clamp Plate
When using the Scuffing Attachment to test
carpeting and other floor covering materials, a
smaller diameter clamp plate 31.75 mm
(1.25 inch)
is available. The smaller diameter helps to
prevent crushing of the specimen fibers near the
wear path.
Specimen Clamp Ring
Two specimen clamp rings are available for the
Taber Rotary Platform Abraser. The standard
clamp ring provided with the instrument is Model
E100-101. This has a 108 mm
(4.265 inch)
I.D.
and is designed for flexible materials up to 0.79
mm
(0.0312 inch)
thick. With a 110 mm
(4.328 inch)
I.D., model E100-102 will accommodate flexible
materials up to 1.59 mm
(0.0625 inch)
thick. E100-
102 is also referenced as clamp ring “B”.

Extension Nut (S-21)
To secure specimens that are 6.35 mm
(0.25 inch)
to 12.7 mm
(0.5 inch)
in thickness, the S-21
extension nut should be used. A 9.525 mm
(0.375 inch)
center hole must be drilled into the
specimen to accommodate the longer shoulder.
NOTE:
For specimens that exceed 12.7 mm
(0.5
inch)
thickness, use the Arm Height Extension Kit (see
Accessory Instruments).
